Easy Fish Pie Recipe
I love this fish pie, it’s like a Shepherd’s Pie but with fish, so if you’re aiming to add more fish to your diet, this fish pie is for you. It’s the perfect comfort dinner, quite easy to make, even though there are a few steps involved, but it’s so satisfying to put together. My favorite part is that golden, cheesy mashed potato topping, can’t beat that! It’s an easy casserole-type of meal, that the whole family will enjoy, that combines three types of fish that don’t even require poaching, with delicious herbs and veggies, all topped off with creamy mashed potatoes. A definite delight for a family night in. A little bit of extra effort required, but so worth it!
Fish – I used a mix of raw cod, halibut and salmon. The great thing about this fish pie is that you can even use smoked fish and you’ll get some extra flavor. So feel free to use your favorite, other great fish is haddock, tilapia, whatever you like. Dill – Go with fresh dill for optimum flavor. Potatoes – Golden Yukon are my favorite to use for mashed potatoes, since they mash really well. Butter – Unsalted butter is best so we can control the sodium intake. Milk – I used 2% milk, even lactose free will work. Cheese – A nice sharp cheddar is perfect for this pie, whether it’s white or orange. Mustard – Dijon mustard will add a bit of tanginess to the filling. Veggies – Chopped carrots, frozen peas and green onions are my favorite veggies for this filling. Flour – A little bit of all-purpose flour is required to thicken our pie filling. Garlic – A little bit of minced garlic to enhance the flavor of our pie.
